Fics like The House That Waited

"You went yourself?" "I did." "You had no authority—" "No." "I had a promise." "I expected James Potter's son." "I found Lily Evans' child." "He apologised because I asked him if he was hungry." Even Fawkes ceased singing. "He apologised," Severus repeated, "for being hungry." Dumbledore's shoulders seemed to sag. "Severus..." "No." Years of bitterness sat behind that single word. "I buried Lily because I failed her once." His black eyes never left Dumbledore's. "I will not fail her son." Outside, thunder rolled across the Scottish Highlands. Neither man noticed. Far below the castle... Ancient magic stirred. Deep beneath forgotten stone... Something that had slept for nearly a thousand years recognised a name. Potter. And, for the first time in a very long while... The House waited.
